[ two girls, gossiping extremely loudly at the desks next to Mishima: ] "--Well *I* heard that Kurusu is *gay*!" [The other girl laughs like it's the funniest punchline she's heard all week.] "What a freak! So he's *really* kissing that spiky blond boy-- the one who looks like a monkey! Hahahahaha!"
Send my muse anons about their relationships. | Accepting | @lercvolutionnaire
Did they have to be so loud? They might as well have been shouting it for the whole room to heart. Likely Akira might overhear a bit of this conversation also it seemed like rumors were starting to spread. They must have both seemed too happy, had too sudden of change that of course, people were going to gossip. No one ever notices Yuuki, he blends into the shadows but Akira… Akira was always the talk of the school, and he was pretty much the scapegoat of all the gossip.
When heard the other talking about the delinquent being homosexual and calling the male a freak the teen flinched. Reminding him that they were not accepted among the common people and seen as an abnormality. Something that went against the society where a man and a woman having a family together like normal average people. As he unwillingly listened to the girls implying that Akira was kissing Ryuji his hand clenches tightly onto his opposite arm. Digging his nails in as he had to use his whole willpower not to snap or scream, it only caused trouble.
They weren’t even talking about him and here he wanted to cry over it cause it felt like a jab at him. They reaffirmed that coming out to anything would be practically wearing a sign that says hey bully and talk shit about how we are freaks freely. God, Mishima felt like a coward as he didn’t want to go back to that. Yet they were talking about Akira more and more while nothing is mentioned about him. Was that on purpose? Did they really not know they were dating?
As the girls laugh he suddenly shot out of his seat earning the attention of quite a few student during the free period. He blinks realizing that he had teared up a bit and flusters badly. “O-Oh um don’t mind me!” His voice cracked as he goes to leave to the bathroom knowing they only had a few minutes before next class. He needed a moment to compose himself, just endure it they don’t know everything. It’s just rumors and gossip.
Rumors and gossip…
